In July and August of this year, GGPoker also guaranteed $5 million across a suite of promotions, and at the time that was regarded as the operator’s biggest giveaway to date. GGPoker even went so far as to say it was “the biggest giveaway in the history of online poker.”
Don’t forget running at the same time, over the summer months was the GG WSOP 2020 online series, which was the first time the World Series of Poker was available online for those in the dot-com market.
However, the $5 million in promotions during the WSOP spanned nearly two months making the $5 million being given away over October even more juicy and cementing it as the biggest giveaway the operator has run.
Nipping close at its heels was the suite of promotions run in September where $4 million was given away.
Let’s take a closer look at the promotions coming up in October.
